Posted in Etiquette and Advice 137

So I am getting married in September and I just recently found my dress. I just went to the doctor's office yesterday and found out that I'm 8 weeks pregnant with twins!!! FH and I have invested already so much money into the wedding that cancelling is really not an option. Are than any other brides...

So I am getting married in September and I just recently found my dress. I just went to the doctor's office yesterday and found out that I'm 8 weeks pregnant with twins!!! FH and I have invested already so much money into the wedding that cancelling is really not an option. Are than any other brides out there that will be pregnant during their ceremony?? What are you doing different to adjust to your growing belly?? I'm kind of upset that I will have to change my dress but I always wanted children and it looks like God has saw that this is the "perfect" time to get knocked up, lol!

    Just a little advice from a labor and delivery person, I would postpone. Twins have the tendancy to come early. September would be cutting it very very close.

    If you're 8 weeks pregnant and getting married in September, the babies will be here by then. Your due date would be in august roughly.

    I'm so glad people came here to stick up for OP. I saw this thread earlier and was astounded that "oops" could be so "offensive."

    Just because you take offense to something that is personal to you, doesn't mean everybody else owes you special treatment (especially when they don't know you and what you're going through). I'm sure it's devastating to have trouble TTC. If you're sensitive to the topic, don't read threads regarding kids! It's your responsibility to avoid possible triggers for yourself. This is an internet forum, you will see things you don't like.

    And to those saying "it's a vio to tell people how to post" HELLO YOU'RE TELLING OP HOW TO POST BY SAYING SHE SHOULD REMOVE OOPS. Lawdddd help me -____-

    Congrats on your pregnancy op!

    On a side note, it sounds like some people on this thread should really look in to counseling if one word can trigger them so much. I can't imagine what it would be like to go through infertility, but if it had me calling people out on a wedding thread because of a phrase that someone chose to use over their unplanned pregnancy, then I would seriously seek counseling to try to find some piece of mind.

    My sister found out she was pregnant while planning her wedding. They ended up making the wedding date sooner. She was a little miserable because she was having morning sickness at night at her reception. It was still a beautiful evening, but she would have rather NOT been pregnant during her wedding. I agree with pushing it back so you can enjoy the pregnancy AND the wedding festivities!

    Are you sure you are only 8 weeks pregnant? I have never heard of anyone knowing that they have twins at 8 weeks. According to google the earliest you would find out is at 10 weeks.

    Maybe you should have your doc double check your due date.

    @Jennifer are you a Dr or just educated about obstetrics via google?

    Congratulations! What a wonderful surprise! Twins do tend to come early, so, if it's possible, you might want to change you wedding by a few months Smiley smile.

    Congrats! I'm not personally pregnant but I've gone to a few weddings where the bride was super pregnant. Both times they were 8 months. They were just as beautiful of a wedding as any! You'll have a blast!

    Jennifer is incorrect. OP, please don't use her medical advice.

    Congrats on the arriving twins! This is awesome news if you can financially afford to move up your wedding to ASAP do so bc carrying twins you are likely to get more tired & tired faster. So aim to do the wedding before your 6th month/ 2nd trimester. After the twins are born its tough bc your whole life will change, your body, priorities will shift. Btw, I saw a beautiful expecting bride on ig yesterday. Ive posted it here for inspo to you.
